BarFly's Review of Ram's Head

Two years ago, an otherwise unassuming businessman was knifed to death while leaving the Ram's Head. We shouldn't speculate whether the knife was a wrist-mounted stiletto nor whether this was a technical assassination, but something about the Ram's Head just suggests international espionage. While the dining area luxuriates the McMenaminian entitlement with typical grub and a post-Pottery Barn clientele, the intricate floor plan of the re-conditioned residential hotel (finding restrooms is a particular adventure) suggests the 1912 origins. The inner bar's dark wood and brown liquor and low ceilings themselves portend low, dark, drunken talks of dangerous men bent upon toppling megalomaniacal industrialists intent upon world domination. Like, y'know, the McMenamins. $.75 off wells, $3.15 pints 4-6pm all 7.

Reader Reviews of Ram's Head
beer and salad
burnSeriously. Beer and Salad. They have this black bean taco salad thing that goes perfect with a pint of Hammerhead. I like the bar area here too, its kinda small and kinda dark. This place is only really busy on the weekends. The only thing I don't like about the various Mcmenamins locations is the lack of variety in the menu and beers. Each place has basically the same food, save for one or two things that you can only get at that location. The thing I love about most local brew pubs is that, even between the ones that have more then one location, the beer and or food selection is very distinct. Take the Lauralwood for instance. The one in Hollywood is totally different from the one on 52nd. Or the New Old Lompoc spots.. The 5th Quad is not at all the same as the one in NW. Anyway. I do like the Rams Head and recomend it over the Blue Moon most times I go to NW.
